(Redirected from Lightning)
The Lightning Bolt (サンダー, Thunder) is an item from the Mario Kart series. that appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Origin The Lightning Bolt in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. The Lightning Bolt made its debut in Super Mario Kart and serves as the logo for the Lightning Cup. It can only be used by racers who are in or near last place. When used, it summons lightning to strike the other racers, causing them to simultaneously spin out of control and shrink in size. Shrunken racers have lowered top speed and can be easily knocked around or, in certain games, even flattened when getting run over. Starting in Mario Kart DS, the length of the shrinking time depends on what place each opponent was in when the item was used, with those at the back returning to their normal size instantly for much longer. In Mario Kart Wii, being hit by Lightning while under the effects of the newly-introduced Mega Mushroom shrinks the player back to normal-size, and in Mario Kart World, the returning Mega Mushroom instead makes players immune to being shrunk. OverviewAs an itemThe Lightning Bolt debuted as a status item in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When used, it will shrink every other fighter to tiny size, similar to the effect of the Poison Mushroom, reducing their attack power to 0.7x, making them lighter, and increase the amount of knockback that they take. However, it can backfire as well, shrinking the fighter who picked it up or causing the other fighters to become giant, similar to the effect of (albeit bigger than) the Super Mushroom, causing them to grow to 2.4x their normal size, and their direct attacks will deal 1.84x their normal damage. In Special Smash, these effects stack with Mega/Mini modes. Touching a Super Mushroom or Poison Mushroom will cancel the Lightning Bolt's effects. Unlike most other items, the Lightning Bolt requires a character to simply make contact with it in order to activate its effect. Any character affected by knockback while being struck by the Lightning Bolt is still affected by knockback after the shrinking/growth effect occurs, similar to the occurrence with the Super Mushroom and Poison Mushroom. Transform glitchIn Brawl, if a character uses the Lightning Bolt on Zelda or Sheik and either character Transforms, this glitch makes the size of the Lightning Bolt user permanent until either Zelda or Sheik gets KO'd or picks up another size-changing item.[1] For Samus, when she turns into Zero Suit Samus via her final smash or by performing taunts; and vice versa (if Zero Suit Samus turns into Samus with her final smash), the size change of the Lightning Bolt will end immediately, without having to wait the standard time for the effects of the item to finish. Regarding Charizard, Ivysaur, and Squirtle (the remaining characters that can turn into other mid-battle), no glitch happens if they use Pokémon Change. Damage multipliersThe table below displays the damage multipliers that are used whenever players are turned tiny or giant by the Lightning Bolt. These values primarily apply to Super Smash Bros. 4 and Ultimate.
